"Brazil is always a pleasure to go to because it is a country that has incredibly enthusiastic fans. They are massively passionate about racing and obviously about the Brazilian drivers.
When you are driving round the track you always see it absolutely packed on Sunday with lots of different flying colours and you can hear the Brazilian bands playing before the start of the race so they always create an amazing atmostphere. The Brazilian fans are one of my favourites from the season.
On the track, you can overtake down in to turn 1 and very difficult to follow from 3 so that is generally the main spot to overtake.".
